Everybody is a comedian on Twitter, but only a select few are truly worthy enough to have all of their witticisms transmitted to you, the ever busy comedy fan trying to navigate through an increasingly congested internet. Every Friday we’ll make your life a little bit easier by introducing you to an individual who consistently makes us laugh and momentarily forget that other days of the week exist.
(If you’re reading this from an RSS feed, jump on over to the website where you can actually view the tweets for an optimal level of enjoyment.)
Erin Whitehead (@girlwithatail) has been a part of the Upright Citizens Brigade in Los Angeles since 2008 and admits on her official biothat she spends “far too much time†on Twitter, both during the day and at night. Fortunately for us, most of what she has to say is pretty funny. Unfortunately for Erin, doing improv and tweeting isn’t her dream.

It sounds like the Whitehead family have entertaining Thanksgivings.

But some self-esteem issues remain.

Probably because of her name.

It’s not easy for Erin to articulate all of this.

If Whitehead ever encounters a genie, she is prepared.

Whitehead knows why sometimes prayers go unanswered.

God might be busy for another reason.
